# Precision Tilting E-Trikes Acrimoto Unveils Its New and Unconventional EV, the MLM E-Trike By Niko Pajkovic | Published 2022-02-28 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etrike References: [slashgear](https://www.slashgear.com/782075/this-wild-tilting-e-trike-could-be-the-most-fun-on-three-wheels/)  Specialty electric vehicle maker Arcimoto has launched its first-ever e-trike, which has been dubbed the Mean Lean Machine (MLM). Unlike the brand's previously released EVs, the MLM boasts a three-wheel design that is much closer to that of a traditional tricycle. With the launch of its new and unconventional e-trike, Acrimoto looks to disrupt the already booming e-mobility market by offering consumers a hybrid riding option that blends elements of a motorbike, scooter, and tricycle. Without a doubt, however, the MLM's standout feature is its unique tilt mechanics, which allow for precision leaning. "With the MLM, you'll be able to corner the same way you would on a regular bike with greater traction, more stability, and better braking ability. We can't wait for you to ride it," said Bob Mighell, Arcimoto Chief Tilting Officer, in a recent press release.
